I think our company left El Dorodo just because Ygg has a bigger population and they assumed there would be more opportunity for everything, which there is.
But only about as much players as there we on El Dorado a few weeks ago. And mostly just hardcore players so they dont have as much incentive to do anything but war or opr until the next patch.
Not being able to win any province is a start i think. Most companies have no chance vs top companies. I think they would like to fight other companies of their âskillâ lvl just to have fun playinn war and having own crest on global map. But bc big companies are toxic and greedy on most servers they cant do it. Literaly on each server i saw that top companies on this server were disabanded moment a big company transfer into server and take all their land.
Eu merges when�
They need to start merging servers to keep them healthy. Expecting players to stick around on 90 peak servers is kind of a joke tbh.
They are not expecting players to stick around on 90 peak servers. They are expecting us to pay to continue playing till next server dies. Or to completely quit and free up a non-paying player spot.
May as well make it a f2p game if thatâs gonna be their attitude.
Lost Ark was a great game. Iâd continued playing it if AGS didnât put New World into cash grab maintenance mode.
Well the Dawnguard, Spud bud, and Snake group are on El Dorado doin their shell company thing. Taxes havent gone up, but I know they have a history of exploiting and stuff to win wars. Doubt they have ever exhausted their gold supplies from those days either. Combining that with âprogamerâ members and that would be immensely frustrating for honest players.
The way people have approached wars since day 1 has been enough reason for me to just keep my distance. Just distasteful.
Iâve seen a dozen threads about west server problems with hundreds of posts over two weeks. Has a dev responded about it yet? I havenât seen anything
Historically, AGS has waited until after big patches to merge servers. I assume they wonât address the server population issues until after the July patch. If servers are still empty after the July patch and AGS doesnât merge, Iâm not sure what their intentions are for New World.
Itâd put a bad taste in my mouth if merges werenât done in conjunction with a major content release. Theyâd want to make these merges happen before then.
I think itâs really naive to think that Merging will fix the problem. If AGS keeps merging the servers, the population is going to implode even more lmao.
What AGS needs to do is change how their server system work. Surely no one else is blind enough to see that, right?
It wonât fix anything but it will slow the exodus of players, and it will allow players to keep playing new world if they want to (you cannot do much on a dead server).
To my understanding new world was originally designed to have 200 to 500 players per server when it was a sandbox pvp survivial game. I donât know how much more they can alter the server architecture at this point.
That has been a problem since the beginning. Probably even before the Alpha. I never touched the alpha, so Idk.
We canât keep doing these band aid fixes like merges. And players sure as hell shouldnât have to pay 15$ just to go to a more healthier server. There needs to be a REAL Solution. It should have been AGSâs Top priory ever since we lost an alarming amount of players the first month of the gameâs release. The signs were there, and AGS just kept throwing out these half-assed solutions to try and appease everyone.
Itâs only going to hurt them in the end. And itâs not like the solution ISNâT staring at their faces. Look at runescape and Bdo, that allows the players to shift different world and servers.
Merging isnât worth the damage it will do later. Itâs a slow and insidious killer, even if it help short term.
Merging fixes some issues, such as:
(1) Having a core number of people able to run and win invasions to prevent towns from downgrading.
(2) Sufficient number of people to support a healthy trading post and economy.
(3) Core number of people to run portals or high end zones or expeditions.
(4) Not feel like you are playing a solo player game.
(5) Sufficient number of people to get an OPR going on a frequent basis.
(6) Sufficient number of people willing to run town board missions.
Will it solve the systemic problems in the game? No. But it keeps the patient breathing long enough for AGS to maybe cure that before the patient dies! 8)
This analogy seems flawed.
Itâs more like, there is clearly an epidemic that has affected the entire population. Theyâre just letting the patients die. Because clearly, nothing useful has been done about addressing the cause or even the symptoms.
whatever kid
I think a real solution is too much for them to handle right now, they have devs going to events and the rest of them are following their road map. So iâll gladly take a bandaid fix now to stop some of the bleeding. I donât see any other choice for them, either merge servers or give free tokens. The real solution is a one world concept but that might be impossible.
I can tell you can use another one of those hugs.
Donât worry. I got you.
